@Race Card I'd die in peacefully yesss and ''you cant kill rockn roll'' also isolated

[@HCkev]

You'll never be able to isolate the guitar as cleanly as this with just software and the final mix; once it's mixed together and exported as a single audio file, there is no going back, you might get it somewhat isolated, but with lot of bleed from the other instruments and with lost of some audio frequencies and quality. You need the separate tracks. A lot of isolated tracks come from Guitar Hero or Rock Band games, in these games they layer the multiple tracks on top of each other, recreating the final mix, but when you make a mistake they can mute the corresponding instrument track and not the whole song(tracks are lisenced so they can get the separate instrument tracks from the record company). Some people are able to rip these tracks from the games data. And Over the Mountain was indeed featured in a guitar hero game, so it's very possible it comes from there.

Young guitar players today are way ahead of the old players because they have all the tools to learn anything they want. Slowed down isolated tracks, lessons from anyone on YT. Lessons from the rock star themself. In the old days all you had was the tape, record, maybe a guitar book (which was always 50% wrong), and the rest was up to you! The downside to all these tools today is it's not special learning anything anymore because some 10-year-old somewhere knows it too thanks to all the information at your fingertips. Funny how every aspect of life has a catch 22!

In 1985 when I started playing you found a buddy that could show you or you got a tablature book.

I have watched alot of great guitar players cover and that 1 note at 2:54 , nobody has done it

[@k-lawn]

2:53 That pinch harmonic bend makes absolutely no sense since he was using his right hand to bend the string. Amazing guitarist.

Wonderful, you represented yourself very well. The double tracking was really nice to see. But the real question is Psycroptic. I have no idea how they do what they do. Cheers

His solo sounds like fireworks, explosions, usa a ok. The best ever during the van halen era and nwobhm.

[@Dave_Wight_The_Rock_Oracle]

he simply does not get mentioned in the NWOBHM because he's American but he clearly was forging that sound when he was living in England
